If you are looking for guarantees, there is no saying pathology is so much better than PSMA for example. Many pathology reports are wrong, people get un-needed radiation which I can assure you does them no good, or are over treated at the get go by incorrect pathology reports. For all the alternative treatments that ablate prostate tissue, PSMA pet/ct is the determinant and replacement, plus PSMA is getting better and better.

I did not realize that PSMA PET scan was a treatment for prostate cancer,
but rather a test to see if there has been any spread of prostate cancer
outside the prostate. Is that not correct? Let me know and thank you for
your post.
